I have lovely memories of Dots who was a wonderful school friend at Howells and I will always remember our teenage time together. Dots had an ease and warmth that will never be forgotten. I feel hugely grateful for the time we shared together. Our love and kind thoughts to Pete and their lovely children.

Firm friends since Transition class in Beech House, age 4, who brought John and me together at Bristol University 42 years ago. A truly special, irreplaceable friend with a beautiful smile and beautiful heart. Exploring your cellars and attics, Sindy and bubble baths in Bolton, teenagers waterskiing and The Stables disco in the Lakes, the Badock Hall 'holiday camp', fun with our toddlers, and so much more - you leave the best of memories but the biggest hole. Our love, sympathy and condolences to Pete and the Grindrod family, to Claire, Jenny and Tim families. Will love you always.
